Barcelona have secured a perfect start in their La Liga final away at rivals Athletic Club with two early goals from Robert Lewandowski.
Hansi Flick backed up his pledge to rotate for the last game of a title winning season but the German coach named his first choice front three.
Lewandowski through the middle of the Barcelona flanked by Lamine Yamal and Raphinha caused instant problems for the home side.
Athletic Club saw and early goal ruled out for offside before star Nico Williams curled a delightful effort just off target.
Those missed opportunities provided the perfect chance for Lewandowski to pounce as he cutely dinked home Fermin Lopezโs pass on 15 minutes for his 100th club goal.
Lewandowski with a very cheeky chip! ๐
A lovely finish to put Barcelona into the lead ๐

Lewandowski headed into the trip to Bilbao six goals behind La Loga Golden Boot winner Kylian Mbappe but he instantly doubled his tally in the Basque Country as he nodded home Raphinhaโs corner for his 27th league goal of the campaign.

A superb start has put Barcelona on course to sign off on 2024/25 with a win after a mixed run of form since being confirmed as champions earlier this month.
